Steven: "Botique wood", I like that! (because it is what it is!)
Earl: I'm always in a bind trying to expand my veneer color pallet, I can't imagine the collection you have amassed to get the materials for your work to come alive as it has.

Dave: I've been haunting the small town hardware/lumber yards where all their "Cleaning supples" aisles are 1" thick in dust over product not touched in 20 years. I was "tricked" at my usual Ace Hardware when I bought a jug with the same labeling, just slightly different. It was a lot cheaper, but when I got home and opened it, just barely a whiff of ammonia. Label MSDS said 1-10%. I'd guess maybe 1% - 2% at best.
I can get strong stuff on line but with shipping, etc. instead of the usual $6/gal. it's about $50. I can get similar results with dye, but at $20/bottle it was better with the 10% ammonia. Now dye is looking sweet!
George: The recent return of Brian and his mention of commie red in his guitar pick box was an "ah-ha" moment when I realized what I had used.
MrRick. Arm-r-seal is on my bucket list. Typically I'll spray precat lacquer, shellac, or poly if the project can be finished after assembly. If not, then it's wipe on stuff or a lot of masking to protect gluing surfaces.
